Labels & Flexographic Printing Financing
Label converters and flexographic printers buy substrate, ink, and plates for every job, run tight-margin short runs for CPG and beverage brands, and wait 30 to 60 days to get paid. Factoring turns finished-job invoices into cash quickly, and equipment financing keeps your press fleet current with digital and flexo hybrid capability.
You're buying pressure-sensitive substrate, ink, and photopolymer plates for every job, running short-run label orders for CPG brands and beverage companies, and shipping finished rolls that don't turn into cash until the brand owner's AP department gets around to it.
Plate costs and substrate minimums eat into margin on short-run jobs, and a rush order from a big brand owner can strain your working capital even though you know the invoice is solid.
We work with funding partners who understand flexo press economics, UPC and variable-data printing requirements, and why a 45-day term from a national CPG brand shouldn't be the thing that stalls your next job.

What underwriters will actually ask for
Labels & Flexographic Printing files have a specific documentation pattern. Bringing these up front usually cuts weeks off the timeline.
Aged accounts receivable by brand-owner customer
List CPG, beverage, and private-label brand customers separately with typical payment terms, since large national brands often pay slower but carry stronger credit.
Substrate and ink supplier terms
Underwriters review your current substrate (paper, film, foil) and ink supplier terms to understand cash conversion timing on a typical job.
Press fleet inventory and press hours
List current flexographic, digital, and hybrid press models, age, and utilization to establish both collateral value and production capacity.
Trailing 12-month financials and average job margin
Interim P&L, balance sheet, and a note on typical margin per job given plate costs and substrate minimums on short runs versus long runs.
Quality certifications such as GMI or SGP
Certifications like the Sustainable Green Printing Partnership or GMI color management standards can support receivables tied to certification-conscious brand owners.
Equipment quote for new press or prepress upgrade
For equipment financing, provide a quote for a new or used flexo press, digital hybrid press, or prepress/plate-making system with expected useful life and resale value.
